Our main goal is to create a blockchain powered platform that allows users to easily create and publish scholarships. Currently it is difficult for various organizations to onboard to a BPP. We have created a BaaS (BPP as a Service) that allows organizations to create their own BPPs and manage them. BPPs can now publish and manage scholarships. We have also created a BAP that allows users to search for scholarships and apply for them.
The BAP service unifies all scholarship information and presents it to the user, with the entire scholarship process tracked on the blockchain. With our user-friendly platform, you can seamlessly create and register BPPs on demand, create dynamic scholarship forms, and even use digital signatures to verify application details.
We understand that scholarship providers need transparent way to manage applications, which is why we've created a tamper-proof system using Hyperledger technology. Plus, our BPP admin panel makes it easy to manage and oversee the scholarship application process.
Our platform has a simple and efficient workflow that allows users to easily search for scholarships, select the ones they're interested in, initiate the application process, confirm their details, and check the status of their application.
Our platform is designed for both scholarship providers and scholarship applicants around the world, regardless of their geographic location or demographic. We believe that everyone should have access to a simple and transparent scholarship application process, and we're proud to offer a solution that meets the needs of both providers and applicants.

/search
- Forwards the search for scholarships from BAP-Client to BG
- Receives ACK from BG
-
/on_search
- BPP which recieved the /search broadcast from BG sends relevant response as per dsep:scholarships specifications via callback to BAP which then emits the the incoming req body to socket.io.
- BAP-client which is in socket.io connection with BAP-service recieves and renders it for user.
-
/select
- Forwards the selected scholarships from BAP-Client to BG
- Receives ACK from BG
-
/on_select
- BPP which recieved the /select request from BG sends relevant scholarship details as per dsep:scholarships specifications via callback to BAP which then emits the the incoming req body to socket.io.
- BAP-client which is in socket.io connection with BAP-service recieves and renders it for user.
-
/init
- Forwards the scholarship Application initiation from BAP-Client to BG
- Receives ACK from BG
-
/on_init
- BPP which recieved the /init request from BG sends acknowledges the initiation and responds via callback to BAP which then emits the the incoming req body to socket.io.
- BAP-client which is in socket.io connection with BAP-service recieves and renders it for user.
-
/confirm
- Stores the Details PDF document generated via BAP-Client input in IPFS and forwards the IPFS-HASH-KEY to BG
- Receives ACK from BG
-
/on_confirm
- BPP which recieved the request /confirm from BG, retrives the Document with IPFS HASH and stores it in Blockchain and sends applicationID as per dsep:scholarships specifications via callback to BAP which then emits the the incoming req body to socket.io.
- BAP-client which is in socket.io connection with BAP-service recieves and renders it for user.
-
/status
- Forwards the applicationID sent via BAP-Client input to BG
- Receives ACK from BG
-
/on_status
- BPP which recieved the /status request from BG, fetches the application details based on applicationID and sends application status as per dsep:scholarships specifications via callback to BAP which then emits the the incoming req body to socket.io.
- BAP-client which is in socket.io connection with BAP-service recieves and renders it for user.
